Episode 38 recap: Guan Xue mentioned Song Zhuo Wen's identity.

Guan Xue made an appointment with Pan Yue to have a drink together and they had a great time in the dance floor tonight. Guan Xue casually asked Pan Yue if Shallowano Keicho knew about Pan Yue's affiliation with the Kuomintang. Pan Yue blamed Hu Bin for talking too much, but Guan Xue already knew about it. From now on, they would each go their own way, but Guan Xue said that no matter who wins in the end, it won't be the Kuomintang. Pan Yue still had to listen to him. In short, it's every man for himself.

Pan Yue scoffed and wanted to see who would have the last laugh. Song Zhuo Wen personally installed the bomb, and now they just needed to wait for the bomb to explode and seize the opportunity to abduct Dr. Xiao Dao. However, Dr. Xiao Dao, relying on his keen sense of smell, detected the scent of the bomb. He broke into the crowd and shouted loudly that there was a bomb, but was publicly shot dead by Chief Long in front of everyone. People panicked and scattered, and the bomb exploded at that moment.

After the explosion, Song Zhuo Wen instructed Song Zhuo Wu to drive away. Dr. Xiao Dao was already dead, but Hu Bin saw everything clearly. On the way, Song Zhuo Wu encountered pursuit and they fled all the way. Pan Yue mocked Guan Xue for raising this wolf cub, Song Zhuo Wen, but in the end, the most valuable one in the Secret Service Department was himself. However, Guan Xue said that Song Zhuo Wen was different from them. He was gambling with his life, which was terrifying to think about.

Guan Xue received a phone call and laughed. Dr. Xiao Dao was killed by Chief Long, and now the scene was in chaos. Guan Xue asked Pan Yue to handle it and give the Japanese a plausible explanation. After Chief Long killed Dr. Xiao Dao, he asked Song Zhuo Wen to come to him. Hu Bin tried to stop him several times, but failed. Chief Long said that he had done everything Qian Chong Li asked him to do, and now he needed Song Zhuo Wen to do something for him.

Chief Long hoped that Song Zhuo Wen wouldn't hand him over to the Japanese. Song Zhuo Wen shook his head; he couldn't escape. Chief Long understood his meaning and shot himself, and Hu Bin couldn't stop him in time. When Pan Yue arrived at the scene, he found that Ding Peng had also been killed in the explosion, and his face twitched uncontrollably.

Song Zhuo Wen told Qian Chong Li that Dr. Xiao Dao was killed, and it seemed like he had been exposed too. Guan Xue arranged for someone to kill Song Zhuo Wen, but the assassin had already fled.

The evacuation of the Japanese has been delayed, and they may have some major actions planned.

Hu Bin and Pan Yue are investigating tonight's events and have even brought a waiter to claim that he hasn't seen Song Zhuo Wen. Hu Bin actually saw the two twin brothers of Song Zhuo Wen, and they really look alike. However, Pan Yue doesn't intend to reveal Song Zhuo Wen's identity to anyone, including Guan Xue, because they still have influences from the Kuomintang. Whether it's the Japanese or the Kuomintang, they are after more than just Song Zhuo Wen alone.

Song Zhuo Wen wants to continue with the operation, but Qian Chong Li demands that he evacuate immediately. However, Song Zhuo Wen understands that the Japanese are now going to use the plague of Unit 731. When he was infected with the disease, he wished he could die. If the people get infected, no one will have a choice.

Song Zhuo Wen doesn't evacuate. He goes back home, causing Qian Chong Li a severe headache. Song Zhuo Wu comes to Qian Chong Li again, saying that he wants to carry out the mission. Song Zhuo Wen is right, just get it done. Qian Chong Li is extremely speechless. He would rather not investigate than let someone go to their death in vain.

When Song Zhuo Wen returns home, Guan Xue is also there. Guan Xue says she came alone and tells Song Zhuo Wen that Pan Yue has joined the Kuomintang and revealed Song Zhuo Wen's identity as a communist.

Song Zhuo Wen continues to play dumb, but Guan Xue puts a gun on the table and says that whether he believes it or not, the gun will have the final say. Song Zhuo Wen picks up the gun and presses it against his temple, but there are no bullets inside. Guan Xue doesn't want Pan Yue to hand over the plan to the Military Statistics Bureau, so she hopes Song Zhuo Wen can help keep him quiet for a few days, just a few days. Song Zhuo Wen agrees immediately.

Guan Xue and Captain Jin tell Guan Kai that they are going to Xinjing and then to Tokyo. They will come back in a while. However, Guan Kai has no intention of going at all. He feels that he is a burden to Guan Xue and is holding her back. Unable to bear it any longer, Guan Xue slaps him, hurting the one who has always protected her brother.
